myvariant 1.0.0

Intro

MyVariant.Info provides simple-to-use REST web services to query/retrieve genetic variant annotation data. It’s designed with simplicity and performance emphasized. myvariant, is an easy-to-use Python wrapper to access MyVariant.Info services.

Requirements

python >=2.7 (including python3)

(Python 2.6 might still work, not it’s not supported any more since v4.0.0.)

biothings_client (>=0.2.0, install using “pip install biothings_client”)

Optional dependencies

pandas (install using “pip install pandas”) is required for returning a list of variant objects as DataFrame.

Installation

Option 1

pip install myvariant

Option 2

download/extract the source code and run:

python setup.py install

Option 3

install the latest code directly from the repository:

pip install -e git+https://github.com/biothings/myvariant.py#egg=myvariant
